Did you try to keep it runing for a minute or 2?. The tune may be out far enough.My car acted bad for the first minute or so after cam swap. Some car start right up some dont.

Tried it won't stay running ... The car also been down for about 7 months you think the gas is bad enough to not keep it running Nd cause the backfire like that

Try fresh gas and fresh plugs.

I'm guessing you are saying cylinder 1 has to be in the compression stroke? If so, thanks...


As far as your ongoing issue....test for spark on every single then check to see if you are getting fuel and if fuel pressure is right on....

Check spark on each cylinder one by one....disconnect the fuel pump fuse and just crank it over and see if you have spark....the issue you are having sounds like when I had bad coils on one of my previous cars...

Last time we had a car that back fired through the intake at the shop it had a broken rocker arm at the push rod cup. This could also be caused by a broken spring or from fouled plugs and bad fuel.
